What is "pesto"?
Pesto is a vibrant and flavorful sauce originating from Italy, made primarily from fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. It has a rich and fragrant taste with a balance of herbal, nutty, and savory flavors. Pesto is traditionally made by crushing or blending the ingredients together until they form a smooth paste, although variations may include chunkier textures depending on personal preference. Pesto is commonly used as a sauce for pasta, pizza, sandwiches, and as a condiment for meats and vegetables. Its vibrant green color and aromatic taste add freshness and depth to dishes, making it a beloved ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine.
